Stick: Bauer Vapor X:40 Stickum Flex: 77 (cut down) Curve: PM9 Player: 5'9" 165 lbs, pickup once a week. Shaft/Flex: Easy to grip, flexy enough even though it's cut down that I can get a good wrister off, no problems here. 9/10 Blade/Puck Feel: Receiving a pass is hit or miss (ha). Sometimes I have to look down and see if the puck is still on my stick, which is no bueno. 7/10 Weight/Balance: Really light stick. I have a CCM U+ CL right now, and it doesn't feel a WHOLE lot lighter than the x40, so that should say something. 9/10 Shooting: Seems alright to me, but passes aren't as precise as I'd like them. Could be the curve, probably me, but either way that's what it is. 8/10 Durability: I bought mine used from a play-it-again, and after whatever it went through there, plus all the crap I put it through now (including street use) it's still just fine. Then again, I play pick-up, so I'm not getting slashed very much. 9/10 Overall: I would totally use this stick again if handed to me, and would recommend it to others. Great price for a great stick. 8.5/10
